+This SDK is intended for use on Windows, OS/X, Linux, and other POSIX
+platforms.
+
+ * Windows
+
+A project file for Visual Studio is included (VampPluginSDK.vcproj).
+This builds the SDK library, but does not build the example plugins or
+command-line host.
+
+Alternatively, when using Visual Studio or another IDE to build a
+plugin or host using the SDK, you can simply add the .cpp files in the
+vamp-sdk and vamp-sdk/hostext directories to your existing project.
+
+If you are using a Cygwin or MinGW GNU toolchain, use the included
+Makefile (see Linux and other POSIX platforms below).
+
+ * OS/X
+
+Run "make -f Makefile.osx" to build the SDK, example plugins, and
+command-line host.
+
+Note that the host requires that you have libsndfile
+(http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/) installed.  To build only the
+SDK and examples, "make -f Makefile.osx sdk examples".
+
+If you are using an IDE, you may prefer to simply add the .cpp files
+in the vamp-sdk and vamp-sdk/hostext directories to your existing
+project.
+
+ * Linux and other POSIX platforms
+
+To build the SDK, example plugins, and command-line host, edit the
 Makefile to suit your platform according to the comments in it, then
 run "make".
 
-There is a ready-tweaked Makefile for use on OS/X; to use it, run
-"make -f Makefile.osx".
+Note that the host requires that you have libsndfile
+(http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/) installed.  To build only the
+SDK and examples, edit the Makefile then run "make sdk examples".
 
-To use an IDE to build a plugin or host using the Vamp SDK, simply add
-the .cpp files in the vamp-sdk directory to your project.

+Installing the Example Plugins

 Installing the example plugins so that they can be found by other Vamp
 hosts depends on your platform:
